If you're searching for a hitch mounted spare tire carrier then we do have a great option with swing-down feature in the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier part # RM-195125 which is specifically designed for vans. It will allow you to swing the tire/wheel down to the ground for easier loading and gain limited access into the rear cargo area. It also provides an additional receiver tube opening at the end of the carrier for further use.

If you are searching for a true swing-away hitch mounted spare tire carrier then the only option we'd have for this would be something like the Kuat Pivot 2 Swing Away Hitch Extender for Bike Racks part # PVD20B (swings to left/driver side) combined with something like the etrailer Hitch Mounted Spare Tire Carrier part # e98ZR.

Yep, you're 100 percent on the money, Al. The 200 lb tongue weight capacity is only for what is put in the receiver and does NOT count the weight of the spare tire and the carrier itself for the Roadmaster Spare Tire Carrier #RM-195125.
